Welcome to Blue Ridge!Welcome to Big Creek Base Camp, your base for adventure in the Blue Ridge Mountains. We are so delighted to share our Mountain retreat with you and your friends and family. Blue Ridge is a magical place for us. It is wonderful venue to relax and unwind from the pressures and stresses of modern urban life, or invigorate and challenge yourself to the myriad of outdoor activities available right outside the screen door. A trip to the cabin can mean anything from observing nature and private reflection, to cooking a great meal and sitting by a cozy fire. Or perhaps a challenging hike, bike ride, or white water experience. It could mean a train ride along the beautiful Toccoa River and lunch in small rural town. Whatever it means, you'll thoroughly enjoy Blue Ridge, and more particularly, our cabin nestled in The Rich Mountain Wilderness area. By being surrounded by so much nature, and fewer distractions from the modern world, you'll feel stimulated and inspired. Take in some scenery and breathe in a little mountain air and see how fast you can unwind!

Just following the September 11 tragedy, due to the shut down of the airports, Sara and I substituted a trip to Montana and came to Blue Ridge for a week in the Fall of 2000. We enjoyed everything Blue Ridge had to offer in that week, so much so, that we decided to buy our own weekend retreat. We began coming to the Mountains on the weekends, and the weekends got longer and longer. Blue Ridge has a way of calling you, it gets into your soul. It allows you to slow down, and appreciate the little things. Simple acts are done for there own sake; like playing a musical instrument, cooking, splitting firewood, making a walking stick, catching fireflies, and telling stories. You tend to pay particular attention to all that nature has to give and covet the refreshing gift it unconditionally gives. We know you will feel the same way when you escape to Blue Ridge. Thanks for visiting BlueRidgeBaseCamp.com, and we hope you enjoy your stay. Our mission is for you to make memories and return again and again. |
